The most visible uncontrolled landfill sites were selected in the western and\neastern parts of the territory of Georgia. Particularly, in eastern Georgia the\nregions of Mtskheta-Mtianeti and Kvemo Kartli have been researched; and in\nwestern Georgia Imereti and Samtskhe-Javakheti correspondingly. Both\nchemical and microbiological analyses were conducted in the samples taken\nfrom their adjacent territories. In case the landfill site is located near the river,\nduring field works using portable equipment main physical-chemical indicators\nof surface waters were determined. After processing of the obtained results the\ncorresponding estimations were provided. The risks due to the environmental\npollution and negative impacts on population health were assessed.
